On the same day the couple will visit the ancestral home of Daniel O’Connell, the Liberator, at Derrynane in Co Kerry.
Their visit - just over a year from the last one - begins on Thursday with a civic reception in Cork City Hall and a visit to the English Market, where Prince Charles's mother, Queen Elizabeth received a warm welcome from stall holders, including fishmonger Pat O'Connell.
Tánaiste Simon Coveney will join Prince Charles and Camilla for dinner.
Clarence House also confirmed their itinerary will include a visit to University College Cork and the National Maritime Museum.
Prince Charles and Camilla will also board as Irish Naval Service vessel symbolising “the close maritime links between the two nations and their flourishing strategic defence relationship”.
He is expected to be briefed on the service’s involvement in Operation Sophia to rescue migrants in the Mediterranean.
